While Beyoncé was at home babysitting Blue Ivy, Jay-Z was out celebrating Tequila Tuesday in New York City. The rapper, 42, enjoyed a boys' night out with 10 of his closets friends at upscale Mexican eatery Dos Caminos Soho.

Starting the night off sipping martinis, Jay-Z and his crew kept the liquor pouring throughout the night, pounding vodka tonics and knocking down shots of Patrón. But don't worry, the star and his posse also made their way through orders of guacamole, scallops, steaks and fajitas.

Jay-Z’s entourage arrived at the restaurant around 10 p.m. and were the last to leave, a source tells In Touch. They enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and even accepted shots from a few patrons.
